About this Case Study

Sharpening our research craft means taking the time to renew ourselves and our skills. We’ve been practising different ways in which we can become better researchers by playing with new research methods and conducting critiques on our existing ones. We’ll share what we’ve learnt about what it means to sharpen our craft.

We'll also use the time to further learn how we can all sharpen our craft, hosting a discussion to learn about other techniques.
